I want to walk for 3+ hours each day. Any recommendations on best shoes for very long distance walking?

Ignore the post by leejohnson1 it is spam.
Go to a running store and ask to be fitted for walking footwear, not running.
They have a different heel than ones used for other sports. The back is rounded up slightly from the sole to the back of the heel's upper. This is to allow for a rolling strike by the heel when walking.
The brand you choose will be dependant on your foot, weight, stride, and gait.
Make sure you are tested on a treadmill or ground walking.
Cheers, h.5
